TheoryGolf — AI Caddie & Strokes Gained TheoryGolf makes you smarter on the course and untangles the complex patterns in your game — all without changing your swing. Meet Theory: your AI caddie, analyst, and coach. Theory studies every round, finds where your strokes actually go, and tells you what to do about it in plain English. Play smarter on every hole with GPS distances, elevation, wind, and green contours. Then see exactly where you're losing strokes with the same strokes-gained analytics the pros use — off the tee, approach, short game, and putting. Strokes gained doesn't tell the whole story, so Theory pieces it all together, chains the why behind your scores, and hands it to you in a format that actually makes sense.

About

SuperPutt

Read full description

Your putting practice is now a round of golf. Putting is nearly 40% of your strokes — and the short ones you keep missing are where amateurs lose the most to the pros. Yet most practice is 30 mindless three-footers with no pressure and no proof any of it is working. SuperPutt fixes that by turning any practice green into a nine-hole round with a single score you can actually beat. One ball. Nine holes. One score. Come back and beat it. HOW IT WORKS Head to any practice green, hit Play, and work through nine putting drills in order — short putts, lag, gates, the clock, the gauntlet. Tap in your strokes as you go and see today's score against par and against your personal best. The drills and par never change, so every score is directly comparable and your improvement is real, not guessed. DRILLS THAT ACTUALLY TRANSFER Every hole is a proven drill from a tour player's routine or from strokes-gained research — Mickelson's circle, Tiger's gate, the college gauntlet, the lag ladder. Tap any hole to see who uses it and the skill it trains. You're not playing a random game; you're practicing like the best players in the world and keeping score. TWO WAYS TO PLAY • Full — nine drills, par 35, about 15–20 minutes • Quick — one ball per hole, hole out, par 15, about 10 minutes Each keeps its own personal best, averages, and history. PLAY SOLO OR WITH FRIENDS Pass-and-play with up to three friends on one phone. Group rounds end on a ranked leaderboard, and your own score still feeds your personal stats. PROOF YOU'RE IMPROVING • Personal best and rolling 5- and 20-round averages • Score-over-time trend charts • Per-drill history so you can see exactly which putts are getting better • Lag proximity tracking and your sharpest and toughest holes NO ACCOUNT. NO NONSENSE. Everything lives on your phone. No sign-up, no login, no ads, no XP or coins — just strokes, honestly counted. No timers or countdowns standing over your putt. Stop practicing the same putt over and over. Play a real nine, keep one score, and watch it drop. Grab your putter and a ball. Par is 35. Can you beat it?
